Can you get it activated first and then insert it into the Nokia phone to try unlocking it.

This was from an older thread...

"You need to enter the code given below on the main front screen of the phone,the same way you would do if you were going to make a phone call on the phone. When you enter Key #pw+NUC+1# when you enter the last # it will then display the message "sim restriction off"

Thanks, I will top it up with credit and hopefully that will activate it.

I did see that previous thread, and tried to enter #pw etc. into the main screen but couldn't get past the # as I couldn't see how to create the letters p and w - it just kept coming up with 7s each time!

was correct, but you do that WITHOUT a SIM in, as if you insert the SIM first you are immediately asked to enter access control code and for some reason the NUC entered there, fails returning CODE ERROR

without the SIM in, the above works perfectly as I entered the last hash, the phone returned - access control removed.
